Chapter 83 - Tenderness

Di Xingchen found a topic of discussion and asked, "Did you not sleep well for the last two days?"

Pei Xu gave a "hmm" and said, "I'm not used to sleeping on this kind of fire."

Di Xingchen said, "I don't know if I'll fit in either."

He felt that what he was saying was nonsense.

But it's better to talk a little than to have both of us be silent. The house is a bit leaky, and when it's a bit windy outside, the wind whistles through the cracks.

Di Xingchen washed his feet and had just lifted them up when Pei Xu handed over the towel. He took it: "Thank you."

Pei Xu didn't say anything, but bent down and brought up his footwash.

"I'll just do it myself ......"

Without saying a word, Pei Xu poured the water into a bucket nearby.

I can't believe I'm pouring footwash for him!

He wondered if Pei Xu would wash his feet if they were a couple!

But the good thing is that Pei Xu always looks a bit aloof when he's not smiling, and although he's doing all the attentive things, his movements and demeanour are very natural and calm.

Even if the offering is so attentive, it can be so sooo attentive and not at all embarrassing, as if he himself is so considerate and not just because he likes him.

Di Xingchen finished wiping his feet and sat down on the bed. When he saw Pei Xu start to wash up, he sat on the bed and took off his trousers.

"Which side do you sleep on?" he asked Pei Xu. He asks Pei Xu.

Pei Xu turned to me with his toothbrush in his mouth and said, "You sleep inside."

Di Xingchen then lifted the blanket and lay down inside.

As Pei Xu was still washing up, he didn't go to bed, nor did he take off his jumper, so he sat up in bed and took his phone to look at it.

As a result, he had only just opened his Twitter account when he received thousands of messages and his Twitter feed simply flashed back.

Di Xingchen is also afraid to look any further.

It's almost bedtime, he's had enough "thrills" for one day, he'd better let himself breathe.

At this moment, a brief moment of calm finally came over him. He leaned back against the wall for a moment, dazed, and when he came back to himself, Pei Xu had already finished washing his face.

Pei Xu sits on the edge of the bed washing his feet, he sits behind Pei Xu, and the room is quiet, so quiet that Guo Bing and the others are anxious.

"That's too quiet!"

"Quietly exhilarating!"

"What the hell are they both doing?!"

The kang was fully heated and it was particularly warm to sit on. Pei Xu looked down at his feet and thought to himself, "They are the same, but the difference between his feet and Di Xingchen's is so great.

His feet are so large that they can be a size larger than Di Xingchen's.

He was thinking about it when he suddenly noticed Di Xingchen crawling over to him.

He froze for a moment, perhaps because of the atmosphere, perhaps because of his posture, or perhaps because he was already in a state of tension, and his blood shot up at the sight of Di Xingchen crawling towards him.

Di Xingchen glanced under the bed and asked, "Do you have slippers?"

"There." Pei Xu hurriedly bent down and pulled out a pair of plain black slippers from the end of the bed.

The slippers were his, plain black, and Di Xingchen stepped on them, but they made his feet even whiter.

"Do you need to go to the bathroom?" He asked.

"No." Di Xingchen said before picking up his duvet and pulling a box of ointment out of it, saying, " Brother Huo asked me to give it to you, I almost forgot."

Pei Xu picked up the ointment and Di Xingchen took the opportunity to look at his hand and said, "Why is it swollen like this?"

It's much worse than it looked when I played the piano, and there's a little bump there on my pinky.

"I used hot water to scald my face when I was washing it just now." Pei Xu says, "It's a bit red." "Brother Huo says his ointment works well, he used to have worse frostbite and was cured with this recipe his teacher gave him."

"Did his teacher give him that?" Pei Xu asks.

Di Xingchen gave a "hmm".

Pei Xu thought, "Di Xingchen knows quite a lot about this.

"Wipe it tomorrow, I'm afraid it will rub off on the blanket." Pei Xu says.

"You just have to rub it on at night for it to work best. It rubs off on the quilt." Di Xingchen climbs onto the bed.

Pei Xu just said, "Yes."

Very obedient.

Pei Xu wiped his feet and rewashed his hands before sitting down on the bed and asking, "Do you want some water?"

Di Xingchen shook his head and said, "No more. I have to go to the toilet at night if I drink too much. Is this way to the toilet to go out?"

Pei Xu said with a "hmm", "There's a dry toilet in the corner to the left of the door."

He said turning his head to Di Xingchen: "Actually it's okay not to go out, it's too cold outside, you can use that bucket if you pee ...... I've heard that's what they do when it's cold this time of year".

"Forget about it." Di Xingchen smiled a little.

Pei Xu saw him laugh and smiled himself. Their eyes suddenly locked and mislaid.

Di Xingchen is nervous, and he is now unable to look Pei Xu in the eye.

Pei Xu is the heartthrob who makes his heart beat faster with every glance.

He unscrewed the lid, rubbed that frostbite ointment onto his hands and said, "The first half of the night will be hot and you will easily get thirsty, so if you are thirsty take a sip of water or your throat will be dry the next day. The second half of the night may be a bit cold, so be sure to cover up."

Di Xingchen gave a "hmm" and saw Pei Xu sitting up.

Pei Xu leans in next to him.

"I'm really tired today," Di Xingchen said immediately, "go to bed early."

I hope this night passes quickly.

"Hmm."

After saying that the two men locked eyes again.

There was an odd atmosphere in the air as Di Xingchen laughed dryly, and Pei Xu laughed, before they both began to undress almost simultaneously.

My goodness.

Di Xingchen pursed his lips as he undressed and thought, "What are they doing?

Why did the atmosphere feel so weird to him!

Guo Bing They were in a hurry: "Damn it, damn it, such a classic painting and I can't even get a picture of it!"

Di Xingchen took off his jumper, leaving him in a thin autumn coat and trousers, and Pei Xu reached for the other quilt that was placed inside.

They had three quilts in total, one for each of them at the bottom, and the top one was for two people, laid upwards as if they were both lying under the same quilt.

Pei Xu tucked all the clothes he had taken off between the two layers of covers and said, "Go to sleep."

Di Xingchen gave a "hmm" and lay down.

Shortly afterwards Pei Xu also lies down and pulls the light.

The room was suddenly dark and nothing could be seen.

The fire bed was not large, but the two of them were lying flat on their backs, still half a person's distance apart. Di Xingchen lay flat on his back and tucked the blanket under his neck.

But he was not really asleep at the moment, so he rolled over and lay on his side with his back to Pei Xu.

After lying flat for a while, Pei Xu also turns on his side, while lying towards Di Xingchen.

Di Xingchen thought through the day from beginning to end.

Pei Xu likes him, Yan Zhi likes him, Huo Cheng likes him, Hu Ying and Duan Yihua probably like him, and Wen Nuo, I can't say, leaving only one, Lin Qingning, who doesn't think anything of him.

Seven guests and he captured six?

He should really be overthinking it, right?

I wish tomorrow would never come, let him spend the rest of his life under this blanket.

I wonder what is going through Pei Xu's mind at the moment.

Seriously, a young man, and the kind of male protagonist with far more energy than normal, sleeping with someone he likes, unless he's a eunuch, can't possibly have no thoughts at all, right?

He used to hear his female friends say that their boyfriends had a "hard time" sleeping with them for the first time. It was painful.

Really?

He was a lighter person and he couldn't imagine what it would be like to be in pain because of this.

But fortunately for Pei Xu, he is a rather high strung person.

It would be scary if he was living with Hu Ying or Huo Cheng today.

Di Xingchen gets dry and hot in no time.

Dryness in the heart and heat in the body.

This fire bed is too hot.

The bedding is soft and does not pinch.

He was getting a little too dry for a while, so he lifted the covers a little to reveal an arm. "Is it hot?"

Pei Xu asked him.

Di Xingchen gave a "hmm" and said, "A little."

With that he rolled over and lay flat again.

Pei Xu sees him lying flat and lies flat himself.

The two lay on the bed, looking at the dark, hazy beams of the room.

The darkness and deliberate silence superimposed on the night were like a fire to a man in his twenties.

The cold body soon heats up and eventually it even sweats a little. Pei Xu lifts the covers up to his waist only.

Di Xingchen suddenly sat up.

"I want to go to the toilet." Di Xingchen said.

Di Xingchen lifted the blanket and sat up, turning his head to see Pei Xu's red face.

His neck is all red, in the golden light, like a boiled shrimp, and Pei Xu's eyes are all love, the bitterness of lust.

This is Pei Xu as no one has ever seen him before, strange, surprising and visually stimulating to Di Xingchen, the first time he has seen the colour of a man's lust in a clear and tangible way, and it immediately pierces his heart.

Di Xingchen was instantly infected and his face flushed as he hurriedly got up from under the covers. He was wearing his autumn coat and trousers and carefully stretched his legs over Pei Xu, who watched with open eyes as Di Xingchen stepped over him. Di Xingchen's, faint scent.

Di Xingchen put on his slippers, his heart beating like a drum, opened the door to his room and ran out.

Pei Xu lies there, his cool, handsome face has changed, his eyebrows have become so fierce, he suddenly rolls over, comes up to Di Xingchen's pillow, lies down for a moment, then folds back, squeezing his frozen, itchy fingers.
